Change of Interview Date (Lagos Embassy)

[Boundless 0]

I wonder what is going on at the Lagos Embassy! My interview date was originally the 1st of October, but I received an email today saying to disregard my previous interview date and that another date will be scheduled at a later time, but they never stated what the new interview date would be. This is crazy, these people can't be that backed up! Welll there goes our hopes for a October interview down the drain!

Later ?? They already are sitting at the end of the validity of the petition. To push it out further is terrible.

I know, I don't understand, I guess the only thing I can do is keep emailing them and try calling the NVC. I have heard of them changing your interview dates but not to this extreme. Has anyone else ever had this done to them?

You remember Dionne got those emails right before her fiance's interview and he went anyway and was still on the list for that day. You may want to send him there on the 1st with his email of that interview date to see if he gets in. And you already know my thoughts on that embassy- they are insane..

Oh my gosh! I am so crazy confused with this all right now. I've been waiting for our interview date, assumed we would hear something any day, but now, re-scheduling interviews that you didn't know you originally had? Wow! I MUST find out our interview date! The NIV says that I have to contact the embassy directly, does anyone suggest a way to phrase your email to get their attention and get a response from them?

Too be honest, you can phrase your email anyway you want to. They are still going to send you that same automated reply that "Your visa has been uploaded into our system and we will contact you when a interview date has been assigned" . You kinda have to just wait until they email you with the date. I'm not familar with the NIV, but you can always contact the NVC (National Visa Center) and they will tell you if anything has been updated in the system.

Call DOS. Tell the operator that your interview date was changed by them embassy. Ask them if they know the interview date. They know this informaiton.

October 1 is a holiday, this is probably the reason your interview was rescheduled. I remember last October 1, my fiance had his tourist visa interview and they rescheduled him a few days later....I would take MrsJibowu's advice and call Dept. of State. I hope they reschedule within a couple days for you! I'll keep you in my thoughts!

Thanks all, but I called the DOS on yesterday and they said that it has been uploaded in their system that my interview date will be rescheduled but as of now no new date has been appointed. I will just keep checking.
